PLANTED

I took the leap and planted all my tomatoes, peppers and eggplants today. If by some weird quirk we get a cold spell I'll just cover them. That is what the hoops are for on the raised beds. I also realized I need to build another raised bed. Gulp! Am I planting too much or not enough. If I am no longer blogging in August it might be because I am up to my ears in veggies and can no longer write. This is sort of scary not knowing if I've under or over planted. I know what I have sprouting in my garage under those lights and then I look at my yard and try to do the calculations. I am eyeing the grassy area around my pool. How bad would that look? I don't think I've ever seen a pool in the middle of a vegetable garden. But I can picture floating on a raft eating tomatoes! Hmmmm...not a bad idea????

Glenda the Good Witch

So check this out!!! Sometimes if I get up early enough in the morning and slip out side very quietly i can catch Glenda The Good Witch visiting my garden in her bubble! She was there this morning.

(the glowing orb is actually a raindrop on my lens!)


The wisteria is blooming. And the rain is dripping from the arbor.

The tree peonies are ready to bloom.

A gloomy day in the city!

A very ugly but very yummy cherry pie. I made a pate brisee.

Bread fresh from the oven.
